conversion of steam at 100 C to water at 100 C :

m = mass of the steam = 50 g

L = latent heat of condensation of steam to water = 79.7 J/g

Heat released in conversion of steam to water is given as

Q₁ = mL

inserting the values

Q₁ = (50) (79.7)

Q₁ = 3985 cal


conversion of water at 100 C to water at 37 C :

ΔT = change in temperature = 100 - 37 = 63 C

c = specific heat of water = 1 cal/(gC)

m = mass of water = 50 g

Heat released in change of temperature is given as

Q₂ = m c ΔT

Q₂ = 50 x 1 x 63

Q₂ = 3150 cal

total heat released is given as

Q = Q₁ + Q₂

Q = 3985 + 3150

Q = 7135 cal

As the steam touches the skin, it undergoes a phase change and releases latent heat due to the phase change. As it reaches equilibrium, it releases sensible heat. We calculate as follows:

Q = latent heat + sensible Heat
Q = 2.26 kJ / g (50.0 g) + 50.0 g ( 4.18 J / g C) (37 C - 100 C) ( 1 kJ / 1000 J)
Q = 99.833 kJ

kolezko [41]

Answer:

Correct answer: t = 2.86 seconds

Explanation:

We first use this formula

V² - V₀² = 2 a d    

where V is the final velocity (speed), V₀ the initial velocity (speed),

a the acceleration and d the distance.

We will calculate the acceleration from this formula

a = (V² - V₀²) / (2 d) = (2.5² - 1²) / (2 · 5) = (6.25 - 1) / 10 = 5.25 / 10

a = 0.525 m/s²

then we use this formula

V = V₀ + a t  => t = (V - V₀) / a = (2.5 - 1) / 0.525 = 1.5 / 0.525 = 2.86 seconds

t = 2.86 seconds

NNADVOKAT [17]

Answer;

-it will move away from the large ball because like charges repel.

Explanation;

-Electric force is the force that pushes apart two like charges, or that pulls together two unlike charges. The basic law of electrostatics Like charges of electricity repel each other, whereas unlike charges attract each other.

When small, positively charged ball is moved close to a large, positively charged ball it would be pushed away from the large positively charged ball since they are both positively charged. One has to put in energy to try to move the small ball closer to the large ball. The closer one try to move it to the large ball, the more energy one has to put in, so the more electrical potential energy the small ball would have.

Hii I need help ASAP with this physics question
Readme [11.4K]

Between the top of the first and the top of the second loop, the coaster has lost potential energy = mgh, where h = 22.2 - 15 = 7.2m

This energy would have converted to Kinetic. Write out an equation and the masses will cancel out. Does that hint help you to find the solution? If not, I will give you another hint.
